Marius Ursache

Speaker & Mentor

Marius received his MD degree but quit the medical field after graduation. He founded Grapefruit, one of Romania’s first digital agencies that has won over 25 international design awards. After leaving Grapefruit in 2014, he founded Eternime, a startup that collects and preserves the thoughts, stories and memories of people through intelligent avatars for eternity. He has also built the Digital Entrepreneurship Toolbox, an online tool used by over 3,000 startups and investors, based on the book Disciplined Entrepreneurship by Bill Aulet, a 24 step framework to product-market fit. He has mentored entrepreneurs at the MIT Global Entrepreneurship Bootcamps, Singularity University and at startup accelerators around the world.

When he is not this awesome multidisciplinary person (medicine, fintech, product management, innovation consulting, UX/UI design, branding), Marius loves go off-the-grid. Some recent trips include running a marathon in North Korea and visiting remote tribes to participate in weird rituals with scars that live on to tell the stories.
